Albion railway station is located on the Sunbury line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the western Melbourne suburb of Albion opening on 5 January 1860 as ''Albion & Darlington'' being renamed Albion on 24 March 1891.〔(Albion ) Vicsig〕 The Melbourne - Sydney standard gauge line passes to the north of the station and along with the Albion - Jacana freight line branches off west of the station. ==History== The Melbourne & Murray River Railway (now the Bendigo line) opened in 1859 running from Footscray to Sunbury, by the early 1860s the line had been extended to Bendigo. A station named ''Albion & Darlington'' was built on the site of the current Albion station, opening on 5 January 1860. ''Albion & Darlington'' only remained open for a single year. In 1891 a new station named Albion opened to the west of the previous station. In 1919 ''Albion'' station was relocated to the current site.〔 The old Ballarat Road level crossing was grade separated in 1961 resulting in the bridge going over the railway line just west of Albion station. The station had a signal box for the control of the junction with the Albion - Jacana freight line until 1961 when it was replaced by a signal panel, which was then moved to the Sunshine signal box in 1965.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Albion railway station, Melbourne」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
